As you might guess from the title, I really and truly have a job! It is in the outback working as a desk clerk at a "Tourist Village", though the map describes it as nothing more than a roadhouse, so I guess it will be a surprise! It is $18.50/hr plus free accomodations and food. I am halfway between Port Hedland and Newman, for those who feel like looking it up. The best part is that it is literally across the road from this amazing national park chock full of gorges and waterfalls.
The owner said he hired my because of my computer skills and lack of experience in the hospitality industry- all the better to mold me, so he says. I have never gotten a job due to lack of experence before. I leave Kal on Monday and will take the, ahem, SEVENTEEN HOUR bus ride starting on Wednesday night. There is the posibility of applying for a receptionist job at one of the mines about an hour south of here, but as my mom suggested, I am going to go for the sure thing, not to mention the kick-ass adventure of it! I am so relieved right now that I have been walking around all day with a slight little jig to myself. I was a week away from having to move my return flight to December. YEAAAHHHH!!!!!!
